#Immersive Media (AR, VR, 360°)

Augmented and Virtual Reality as well as 360° videos enable new forms of immersion in the virtual world – for example for use in the world of art and media, in Industry 4.0, and in digital healthcare.

Projects

VRinMotion

Investigates how characteristics of stop-motion animation and motion-capturing can be conflated with virtual reality in order to enrich the current art discourse.

DEV-GRACE

Development of Master Gamified Reality Applications for Real-world Challenges and Experiences.
